Had Heart Attack, Weakness, Loss Of Energy, Shivering, Tremors, Numbness In Head. What Should I Do?

Had a heart attack 3 months ago and about a week ago started feeling weak with what I thought was sinus\cold\ flu . Now I feel weak and have no energy and been having some leg shakiness and tremors and the right side of my head feels a little numb like a sinus pressure. Going to rehab and everything looks good... Blood work was normal. Everyone has been sick with the flu and I have not so think that is what is happening as others in the house have been out for up to a week... Thanks for any help!

Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic

Weakness after viral fever is well known - Post Influenzal Asthenia.
But 'flu' itself is not certain in your case.
Even so, with a history of recent hear attack, it is better to check - that no new heart problem has happened.
Again, the effect of drugs should be considered.
See your doctor / get examined / have and EKG and some basic blood tests / get re-assured.

Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
